Tumbler Riddim – Timecode Records

Iyara’s “Hey Gyal Sidung (Raw)” is the spark in Tumbler Riddim, and it sets the tone for this tight little 2013 Timecode Records drop with a wicked, no-frills dancehall feel. The rhythm has that sharp, lean pulse that leaves plenty of space for the voices, which is exactly where Iyara and Richie Loop lock in with their bawdy “Hey Gyal” cuts, while Toney Chrome’s “Waah Mi” keeps the energy rolling from a slightly different angle. Timecode doesn’t overcomplicate anything here; the production stays clipped and direct, letting the personalities do the heavy lifting. It’s only three tracks, but that brevity gives the riddim its own quick-strike charm.
